Storm History
[edit]On June 27 at 2 a.m. PDT (0900 UTC), after several days over the warm waters south of the Baja Peninsula, an area of low pressure developed enough organized convection that it was designated a tropical depression. With warm waters and low wind shear,[1] its local area was conducive for development and slight strengthening occurred. At 8 a.m PDT (1500 UTC) Tropical Depression Two E was upgraded to Tropical Storm Boris.[2]
